Pancake Day 2025: Get Ready for a Flipping Good Time!
Pancake Day—or Shrove Tuesday, if you're feeling fancy—lands on March 4th, 2025. Whether you're a tradition-obsessed pancake purist or just someone who loves a good stack of fluffy goodness, it's a day for celebration! And honestly, who doesn't love pancakes?
Pancake Heaven in Romford
Romford's got some seriously great pancake options. If you're looking for a classic experience with a fun twist, Gingham Kitchen (in the Liberty Shopping Centre) is your place. They've got everything from your standard Devon and Italian pancakes to more adventurous creations like Hawaiian and Bahama-style pancakes. Seriously, Hawaiian pancakes? I'm intrigued!
Craving crepes instead? Kaspa's (The Brewery Shopping Centre) serves up a delicious array, including banoffee, brownie, and strawberry & cream—my mouth is watering just thinking about it! For a true Romford institution, check out Poppins Cafe (Western Road). They've been around since 1979 and their "Choclog" pancake is legendary among chocolate lovers. And if you just want a simple, satisfying stack, Toastea Cafe (Whitchurch Road) offers their "American Dream" stack (bacon and maple syrup) or you can customize your own.
Beyond Romford: More Pancake Adventures!
Feeling adventurous? Head to The Waffle Bar in Hornchurch (Ardleigh Green Road). Yes, it's called The Waffle Bar, but trust me, their crepe game is strong. They have over 15 different options, from Lotus Biscoff to an Eton Mess-inspired crepe. Or, get creative and design your own!
National Pancake Day Celebrations: Free Pancakes?!
IHOP is going all out for National Pancake Day! On March 4th, they're offering a free short stack of buttermilk pancakes at participating U.S. locations from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. (dine-in only). And get this—they're also attempting a Guinness World Record for the most pancakes served in eight hours on March 1st at the Santa Monica Pier! Talk about ambitious.
Up north, Sunset Grill's annual Pancake Tuesday Fundraiser on March 4th supports the Canadian Cancer Society. They're selling buttermilk pancakes for $2 each, with 100% of the proceeds going to a great cause. What a delicious way to give back!
Guildford's Pancake Race: 20 Years of Flipping Fun!
Guildford's Pancake Race is celebrating its 20th anniversary on March 4th! It's a fun community event with races for everyone, including a mascot race. They're raising money for the Mayor of Guildford's Local Support Fund, and the grand prize for the main race? Two tickets to Guilfest, headlined this year by The Jacksons and Razorlight! That's a pretty sweet prize, right?
